"They're working together literally every day of the week -- sometimes in the same cars together -- and always integrated in their operations," Botsch said.

The FBI said the task force is working.

"We have noticed a reduction in the number of homicides and shootings in our target area," Botsch said.

Botsch didn't provide numbers but said last week the task force severely dismantled the dangerous 29 Taliban, which was responsible for a lot of the violence last summer, and there are plans for more raids.

"We are currently looking at least three other gangs in District 5 that we are targeting," Botsch said.

The FBI said the gang task force won't be successful on its own.

It's crucial for the community to get involved and help police patrol their neighborhoods.
